Carmel flavours run through this big piney west coast style IPA. The heavy flavours mesh well and sit quite smooth on the palate. Absolute cracker of a beer. One of my favourite IPAs from one of my favourite breweries that started me on the quest to craft beer.

This beer will always remind me of touring the Sierra Nevada brewery in Chico, California. Seeing them brew and can the pale ale and the Torpedo and seeing pallets of Torpedo warmed the cockles of my heart.
